Extract

Let E be a compact subset of R2, of Hausdorff dimension s > 0 and for each real number t let Ft be the linear set {x1 + tx2: (x1x2) ∈ E}. In this note we shall prove

THEOREM. If s ≤ 1 then Ft has dimension ≥ s, excepting numbers t in a set of dimension ≤ s. If s > 1 then Ft, has positive Lebesgue measure, excepting numbers t in a set of Lebesgue measure 0.
